Is Chris Petersen in mix in Aggieland?

COLLEGE STATION – Kevin Sumlin is still Texas A&M’s primary target, but another name has entered the mix, according to TexAgs.com guru Billy Liucci: Boise State’s Chris Petersen.

I believe when the dust settles on all of the activity of the past week, it’s going to be Sumlin, but any interest in Petersen (or any interest in return) is, of course, intriguing. He’s likely to be in the $4 million range should A&M try and bring him onboard.

Another candidate, Larry Fedora, has taken the North Carolina job, and it appears Alabama defensive coordinator Kirby Smart was never really considered strongly for the gig. Again, all signs still point to Sumlin, with a press conference perhaps coming as soon as Friday.
